Re: Bumpy Ride with AM's 8" Mecanum wheels?

Joe: from Royal Jesters, want to chime in on this discussion??

The problem is iinherent with a wheel of this design. The mathematical formula that the individual segments of the wheels, in effect, the optimal shape of the rollers is patented. The optimal shape is one that keeps a portion of the rollers in contact with the carpet at all times. Team 357 can give you the better low down on wheel/roller shape than I.
